A lot of MOTU collectors consider the Euro Four to be the Holy Grail of MOTU collecting but for me it was always a MIB Eternia! Well, that and an AFA80 or better 8-back He-Man. But I digress! Finally got the big set and it was just dumb luck or serendipity (or both!) that it came in a collection with the other three playsets!

From the photo, I think that the figure is french variant with soft rubber boots (boots were molded in rubber of that color, not painted). These figures with rubber boots were produced in France but sold mostly in Germany.

Forget the He-Man, Squidward! Grab those Pretender Transformers! There's Submarauder and Landmine plus the one hidden under Musclor.

This little shop is heaven. I cannot believe I've never knew about it.
I just recently saw a little clip of it in the local news, so of course I
had to visit.
Tonnes of toys. Especially (loose) MOTU and TMNT. He also has a
complete Dino-Riders T-Rex. OMG!!!
I think that lots of treasures are hidden here for the right finder.
I have no interest in nor knowledge about Transformers.
You know that, mylord.

Armageddon will soon be here,
the sinners will meet their fate.
But I am calm and without fear,
as I feed upon my hate.

Sacrilege! As punishment I order you to watch every G1 Transformer episode (98 in all) and every G1 Japanese episode including Scramble City as well as Transformers Zone. That ought to teach you, Squiddy!

I dunno?! I thought the yellow boaders were sold in South America?
And why was it, that these unflattering stickers got slapped on?

I was never that interested in these niche card kinda figures.
Always prefered straight ol' regular American cards.

At the beginning of the Eighties, France had two Mattel factories producing the toy line "Les Maitres De L'Univers", one of the these 2 factories produced cards with a yellow border on the face. They were marketed throughout Europe.

just picked up a he-man w/original which i overpaid for a bit but after all this time i didnt have and He-mans in my collection and now i do. Im also happy to say after trading my BA Skelly + panthor gift set, i was able to buy it back, lol (traders remorse).

Originally I traded it to him to fill some significant holes in my classics collection. Needless to say, it filled BIG holes. Then after seeing it up for auction on eBay, I dropped a last minute bid and won it back, lol.
